Core Areas of Expertise<\/h3>\n

Our Houston commercial litigation attorneys assist business owners, executives, and commercial entities in a wide range of commercial litigation disputes.<\/p>\n

1. Breach of Contract & “Qualified Transactions”<\/h4>\n

In Texas, a contract is only as good as its enforcement. We handle disputes involving vendor failures, non-performance, and complex “qualified transactions” under the Texas Government Code.<\/p>\n

\n

Key Fact:<\/b><\/span> The Statute of Limitations for a breach of contract in Texas is 4 years. Waiting too long can permanently bar your recovery.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

2. Business Divorce & Partnership Disputes<\/h4>\n

When a partnership dissolves, the stakes are deeply personal and financially catastrophic. We represent majority and minority interests in cases of Breach of Fiduciary Duty, shareholder oppression, and asset division.<\/p>\n

3. Trade Secret Misappropriation (TUTSA)<\/h4>\n

In the age of AI and digital transformation, your proprietary data is your most valuable asset. We provide immediate intervention via Temporary Restraining Orders (TROs) to stop the unauthorized use of trade secrets or violations of non-compete agreements.<\/p>\n

4. Commercial Real Estate & Construction Litigation<\/h4>\n

Commercial property disputes can arise during acquisition, development, construction, leasing, and ongoing property operations. Our firm evaluates issues involving contractual performance, construction defects, financial losses, and disagreements over the rights and responsibilities of commercial parties.<\/p>\n

Businesses dealing with construction-related disputes may also benefit from reviewing our Houston construction defect litigation services<\/a>.<\/p>\n
